Shout it from the rooftops

Do you remember the day you accepted Jesus as Savior and Lord? I was only eight years old, but I can still recall the wonder that all my sins were gone and that now I was a Christian. The first thing I did was find my mom and dad (because I made the decision at the close of Sunday school) and tell them. I wanted them to know. That’s the way it is when we meet Jesus–we want others to know. We want to proclaim what He’s done for us. He’s saved me! Healed me! Strengthened me! Comforted me! I want to proclaim it, and God wants me to proclaim it because those who’ve not yet believed need to hear! Spread the Word, Christians–shout it from the rooftops: Jesus Christ is Lord! (Suggested hymn: “Go, Tell It on the Mountain” by John W. Work, Jr.)
